​

Are you an RMT?

​​

No, Massage Practitioner is different than an RMT. You are unable to claim your session through your insurance, and The Groomed Gentleman is not registered with the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario. We are male Practitioners providing a wellness space for men to relax.

​

Where are you Located?

​​

The Groomed Gentleman is a home-based business run out of the lower level of our home. The space is relaxing and serene when you walk in with natural light and refreshing aromatherapy scents. 

​​

Do you provide insurance receipts?

​

As I am not an RMT, I can not issue receipts for insurance purposes. You do receive a receipt for your booking and payment upon booking.​ If you have a personal spending account with your medical insurance, you may be able to claim your session through that. 

​​​

What areas are you able to concentrate on during the session?

 

I can apply deep tissue and trigger point techniques to most areas of the body that are experiencing tension.

​

Do I need to be draped during the session?

​

it is completely dependant on your comfort level. If you choose to not be draped by a sheet, a towel will be provided to cover the obvious areas.​ You are also welcome to be undraped if that is your comfort level. 

​​

Will there be bruising after my session?

​

Depending on the area of focus, like the inner thighs, bruising may occur but other than that, there should not be any bruising.

Your muscles will be tender and sore after and potentially the next day. A hot shower is beneficial to help heat up the muscles to relax them.

​​​

What is a Body Scrub?​​

​

A Body Scrub consist of Apricot Shells, Oatmeal and Tea Tree Gel that is made in

house. The Scrub process takes 20 minutes then you have a shower and come back for a massage. You can choose to have our Regular Body Scrub, which consists of a 30-minute Hydrating Massage or you can choose between a 60, 90 or 120-minute massage following your scrub. If you have allergies to Apricot, then Pumice Stone will be used as an alternative. 

​

What are extractions?​​

​

Extractions can be done on the face or on the body. When it comes to doing extractions on the face, this includes blackhead removal, open or closed comedones (pimples) or ingrown caused from shaving. Most blackheads buikld up on the nose, T Zone and around the nose and under the eyes. Extractions on the body can consist of ingrowns, acne and pustules. If you are interested in getting Extractions done, you can book our Back Treatment or our Skin Renewal Facial. 

​

What type of massage do you offer?

​​

We Offer a range of different massage techniques and muscle-related recovery moves to help reduce muscle tension and discomfort. We offer Deep Tissue, Trigger point, Swedish, and various stretching techniques to help increase the proper range of motion. Dry Cupping and Gua Sha Scraping is also offered and can be added to your session.

​

​

Are Woman welcome at your Wellness Space?

​​
